Yarn Along: The Constant Princess...

I finished the Honey Cowl for my sister the other night (just in time for her birthday!) and so I am working exclusively on my Edith Shawl now... I would like to give it as a gift to a friend who is getting married on January 27th. I have about 50 more inches to go, so I have my work cut out for me!

My husband and I (with a baby in tow) went on a trip almost two years ago. While we were away, I purchased a LONG book on The Wives of Henry the 8th (actually that might even be the title). It was fascinating; although, I haven't quite finished it yet. Enjoy!

Do you listen to the "Stuff You Missed in History Class" podcast? Some really fascinating stuff! I just listened to one on the young Queen Elizabeth that included quite a bit about Henry's wives. There's also a recent episode about Catherine of Aragon's younger sister, Joanna (Or Juana la Loca). All the episodes are free on iTunes.

Welcome

I am an Orthodox Christian woman who is happily married to an Orthodox priest. I am a mama to three little ones and I enjoy trying to create a peaceful and lovely life for my sweet family!
